What I think we'll see from GTA on the PS Vita

My thoughts:

The game will be set in a modern day Vice City so that the HD era comes full circle (GTA IV was set in Liberty City and GTA V in the Southern California equivalent of San Andreas). It will be bigger than the previous iteration of Vice City and maybe even feature swamps.

We probably won't see multiple protagonists but if we do, it could be a Miami Vice thing with the story focusing on two protagonists instead of three. Focusing on one protagonist again wouldn't be a bad thing though.

Visually, I don't think the game will look as good as GTA V but with Vice City's vibrant neon lights, warm weather and populous beaches it will still feel like a new game. I think it'll really compliment the PS Vita's OLED screen.

I'm not really sure what to expect music-wise.

I really hope it goes down that road on having a multi choice and intead of a single character... I could see it working really well on a vita

And again in V.C makes sense, sice we have never had a modern day version yet.. We have had a past present and modern day Liberty city and now we have a past and modern day Los Santos, so it makes sense to follow that pattern

I would love to see a GTA PS Vita title. Great ideas too! Hope this isn't just a dream. SupraGaz said it right too with Killzone coming out and if thats successful we should hopefully see more AAA titles on Vita.

I'd still wait to see what they have to present at gamescom. It doesn't sound right that every team is working on GTA V.

Rockstar Leeds were recently hiring for more PC developers so that kinda goes in the way of them not doing anymore handheld GTAs. I dunno if they were the ones behind the 10th Anniversaries but it seems those must be making them far more money than LCS/VCS/CTW ever did for them not to want to make anything for Vita or 3DS.

War Drum Studios worked on the mobile versions of GTA III and Vice City.

But yeah, I guess we'll be lucky to see something. I'd be really disappointed if Sony couldn't convince Rockstar to create some kind of open world experience for the handheld.

Never heard of those devs lol

Yep Sony shouldve thrown money their way to get something off the ground. It didn't really matter to R* if LCS and VCS didn't do any big numbers because Sony pretty much funded development (hence them only being on PSP and later PS2), I'm guessing this time Sony either wasn't bothered about getting GTA, or they expected R* to just make one for Vita themselves.

And I hope they go back on what they said and tie it into the GTA3 storyline because it was so much better. They couldve just kept going with that whole story tbh pre or post GTA3.
